Default RE: BH Models P-36

My father bought one and it looks very nice. It's glued together with the typical melted hot glue, but they all are. Might need a firewall epoxy beef-up. The cowling looks great, the covering was tight and the overall shape and outline looks fantastic. I think it's much more scale than the P-40.
Dad wants to go with the retracts in the kit, I want to make him some wheelpants like the Curtiss Export Hawk 75 and leave it fixed gear. The retracts in the kit are not scale in retraction direction or mode, they are like a P-51 and do not rotate and retract aft like the full scale job.
Overall it is a nice model and looks suited to a 91 four stroke. His isn't flying yet, so these are in-the-box impressions.
